Pigeon Attack!
OK - so this is NOT your typical Monday, but it has turned into one of THOSE Mondays.
I was having a lovely day until I was coming back from lunch. On my way towards York Ave, a slew of pigeons came towards my friend and I and I ended up getting slapped in the face with a wing! WTF!?!?
Of course, I yelled a few choice words, got a little grossed out, and finally just laughed it off.
No sooner do I get over this when another pigeon - or maybe it was the same one - shit on my head. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! After all the good I did yesterday, THIS is what I get.
You can’t make this shit up! How crazy. This is actually worse than the time a pigeon fell on my head on 5th Ave and 18th Street, but that’s another story for another time.
To be honest, my friend and I were laughing our asses off about it all - what else can you do?
Oh, and if I hear one more person tell me that it’s good luck, I’m going to scream.
I tried to get sent home, but I think I was laughing too hard for my bosses to think that there was any trauma.
I hope the commute home won’t be as exciting.

Ya know, that’s good luck.
Oh, wait, I can hear the scream from here.
:P
HAHA holy shitty situation! that sucks! a random girl on the street was shit on by a pigeon last week, and i guess she felt the need to tell me, so she tapped me on the shoulder and put her shitty sleeve in my face exclaiming “GROSS! I JUST GOT SHIT ON BY A PIGEON! I HAD TO TELL SOMEBODY!”
Fuck that! I refuse to believe that having feces land on you, regardless of the species of origin, is good luck. But, like the old addage says, shit happens. I hope you washed well afterwards. They say Pigeon shit has lots and lots of bacteria.
Look at the bright side… At least it didn’t get on your 5″ heels.
Didn’t Guiliani got rid of all the pigeons.
